Toy Story 2

I saw Toy Story 2 last night at the Castro Theatre in San Francisco. It was digitally projected and looked AMAZING. The film doesn't rest on any laurels, though. seeing as how Toy Story was one of the best films of 1995--it's hard to imagine how they could top it. I'll leave it to others to say whether or not they think it's better than the original, but I was pleased to see the folks at Pixar not re-tread the idea. The characters actually have GROWN between Toy Story and the new sequel. Great Job! Iron Giant eeks past it as my favorite film so far this year, but even as much as I loved American Beauty, Toy Story 2 is my number 2 pic this year (followed by American Beauty). Pixar's animators are some of the best actors around. The Technical Crew really rose to the occasion as well--the picture looks GREAT.
